Musabvunda is Shona for “don’t sweat it” but ironically, Musabvunda is targeting inspiring people to sweat intentionally for better health, mindset, and community engagement and involvement. Musabvunda and OM partnership is rooted in shared values for transformation, inclusion, and impact.
“Sport is about vibrancy, commitment and enthusiasm and the same we want to inspire individuals, organizations and churches to see vibrant communities of Jesus followers among the least reached people. The reason for various distances is to cater for novices and seasoned runners alike, also including those who may want to walk as well.
“OM Zimbabwe brings a wealth of experience in community mobilisation and outreach. Their network helps us reach deeper into rural and urban areas with our message of holistic wellness. This partnership is more than logistics it’s a fusion of faith, fitness, and community development. Together, we’re reaching hearts and transforming lives one kilometre at a time.”
